Description
Polybutene is a synthetic polymer used as a thickener, texturizer, and substitute for mineral oil. It forms a smooth, glossy film on the skin or lips, which retains moisture and provides long-lasting hydration without stickiness. It is often used in lip glosses, balms, creams, oils, and decorative cosmetics. It makes the texture of the product more pleasant, elastic, and durable.
